“Graffitidiots” Targeted In Perth Australia
Intrusive bit ‘o bus advertising for Transperth, part of the Aussie government’s Public Transportation Authority. Apparently laws have recently changed down under making graffiti a more serious crime. New York City council member and anti-graffiti grandstander Peter Vallone, Jr. would love to see this visual message placed on the back, front, and side of every bus and subway seat in the entire MTA system. Just seeing all those handcuffed wrists would make his little tagger twitch. But back to this advert, where a copywriter has tried much too hard to coin a phrase in the name of citizen policing. The bottom line reads: “Report a Graffitidiot.” I’m really not even sure how that word is pronounced.
